Pier 19 A Pulp Cthulhu Adventure
« on: September 10, 2006, 08:44:22 PM »
Hello,

this weekend we had a gaming convention in Bad Oldesloe ( Northern German town ) . It was the first time this event took place. It was very nice and entertaining. I think all participants had lots of fun and Iam sure here will be a review of the con very soon.

I had the chance to run severall .45 Adventures with very nice gamers. The adventure is called Pier 19 and is part 2 in my Cthulhu Pulp Game Campaign.

After the book was recovered from our heroes, Mr Gutworth the evil cultist leader send his evil Minions to Professor Higgins. He wanted Prof. Higgins as a sacrifice for his sick rituals and also HIS book back.

Boss Malone, Lefty Collins and Mickey Two Guns caught Higgins and the investigators off guard, took the book and the Professor and drove off to the meeting place at the Docks. The Cops on there tail the gangsters raced thru the dark and foggy streets down to the harbour. Suddenly Lefty lost control of the car and crashed right into a fence. They took the book and there victim and rushed into the dark alley when the police truck hit the brakes...



Lefty grabbed the Professor and forced him behind some fences and told him to shut up or he....
Meanwhile Boss Malone let loose an aimed shot at the Cops. Agent Johnson was hit in his temple. While the other policemen jumped for cover.



Boss Malone and Mickey Two Guns rain the cops with bullets while Lefty searches for a way through the crates when he was attacked by a policedog.



Boss Malone keeps firing at the cops while Mickey two guns searches the large Warehouse for Mr Gutworth.


Lefty is still outside in the alley fighting with the dog. Professor Higgins could free himself and gets help by Sgt Jones. Officer Collins and Special Agent Smith enter the warehouse through the backdoor and surprise attack Boss Malone who seeks shelter behind some crates. He gets covering fire by Mickey two Guns who still searches for Gutworth.


Were have you been you little creep. And where is my book and the sacrifice you stupid cross eyed dog Gutworth snarls at Mickey when he surprisingly stepped out of the shadow...


I want them dead or alive shouted Special Agent Smith. More and more cops enter the warehouse. A bullit accidently hits a machine and hot oil burn Gutworth face ( and ruins his Armani suit )



Unable to get the book and the rofessor the Villain run for there secret door to escape.



The New York City Police is there when you need them !



Thanks to all people who played this adventure with me the last two days. It was a lot of fun for me.

Thanks to Rich for emailing me charakters for this adventure. I lost all of mine. And I dont know where they are.

Boss Malone and Also Special Agent Smith did very good jobs.

The Miniatures are Grenadier, Dixon and Ral Partha and painted by me. The cars are Yesteryear and the scenery is all by www.pardulon.de

So the Professor eludes the grasp of the villains. I can't wait to see what danger you put him in for part 3. :)

Thansk for sharing and the pictures of everything look great!

No tentacles? No gibbering horrors? No squamous, eldritch, cyclopean what-have-yous? :roll:

I hope the horrors from beyond make an appearance next episode!

Great game! I'm more tempted all the time to start my pulp/Cthulhu collection again...

Nice looking game!

Are the wooden fence pieces home made or commercial pieces?

Hi Dom,

all scenery is available at www.Pardulon.de except the cars, miniatures and lanterns.

You can email Pardulon ( Jens ) and Iam sure he will be glad to help you. The houses come in wall sections you can build whatever you like. They also have wooden doors, metal doors, machinerie and all sorts of things.

Greetings
Björn

Absolutely cool! It's a pitty that you guys live so far up in the north...  :( .
Anyway: great scenery. I'm going to steal some ideas for my own pier setting (e.g. those oil slicks on the floor of the warehouse....)

Cheers, Hagen
